Sometimes a temporary folder is needed to get Chrome to start this way, so in those cases this might work.

$pathToChrome = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe'

$startPage = 'https://stackoverflow.com'

Start-Process -FilePath $pathToChrome -ArgumentList $tempFolder, $startmode, $startPage
